Our "Why"
MAKE Solutions was founded to assist healthcare organizations and improve the outcomes of their technology implementations. We wanted to streamline software implementations — ensuring that organizations could mitigate risk and speed up time to go-live.
Since our founding, we have expanded our vision to include industries outside of healthcare, helping organizations, consulting companies, vendors, and resellers gain efficiencies with their operations and projects.
